In the same covert I mentioned in my other post I also "Beaned" a grouse one season in there. When it flushed I got a shot off at him and apparently I led to much or I shot high, at the shot it started flying straight up and went maybe 10, 12ft up and all of a sudden dropped to the ground dead. I had read of beaning them but this was the first and last time I ever saw it for myself. Has anyone else ever had the experience?
